Harry did a great deal for calypso and Trinidad & Tobago, as well as the other Caribbean islands are eternally grateful. However, it is a crying shame that many many songs are credited to Harry Belafonte when he borrowed them from the calypsonians of the West Indies. In fact, King Radio among others from Trinidad, were singing this song before Harry borrowed it.
None-the-less, it is a great song and I hope you continue practicing and playing calypso, my friend.
v well sung...one of my fav songs
